Scuba diving in Corsica
Don your scuba gear and discover that Corsica is as stunning below the water as it is above. Scuba diving in Corsica can be a rewarding activity, let our experts help you plan your trip.
Can you scuba dive in Corsica?
Absolutely! Corsica’s clear, warm Mediterranean waters make it a perfect for scuba divers, whether you’re making your first descent or looking for more challenging sites.
On the whole visibility is excellent and the scenery under the water is just as varied as the coastline above, with rocky reefs, drop-offs, caves, seagrass meadows and historic wrecks waiting to be explore.
Dotted around the coast are protected marine reserves – particularly around the Lavezzi Islands and Cerbicales Islands – and these support an impressive variety of marine life, including grouper, barracuda, moray eels and colourful sponges. And the great news is, there are sites ideal for beginners and more experienced divers.
